Diane Whiteoak reviewed: Beginner Watercolour Art Retreat Day

"What a great experience! As someone who could barely draw a stick man I was convinced I would be embarrassed by what I was able to produce, great teaching and high quality paper and paints meant I was quite pleased. Very friendly and relaxing being totally absorbed meant my cares and worries were far far away. I will go again for sure. "

Joan Kennedy Artist responded:

"Diane, we can all be creative, it just takes time to grab back that self belief. Looking forward to seeing you at the next event. Thank you so much for your lovely review and your continued support is very much appreciated. Joan x"

Sue Higgins reviewed: Spring beginner Watercolour Art Retreat Day

"Joan is a wonderful lady who encourages and guides her students. She pushed me to explore further and try new things. This allowed me to “play” without the fear of needing to create a perfect piece. As someone coming back to watercolours and wanting to explore abstraction this was great."

Joan Kennedy Artist responded:

"Thanks so much Sue, it was an absolute pleasure and thank you so much for having confidence in my ability in my teaching. You’re a wonderful artist, happy painting xx"
